BTS had an instrumental version which made the top 10 on iTunes as well. And although they didn't manage to overtake Ed, they were still pretty far ahead of everything else excluding football songs at their peak (outselling Galantis more than 3 to 1, nearly 4 to 1 combining the instrumental version), it's just that Ed's lead was and still is huge. And they did at least make the top 40 on Spotify on their first day which is not nothing!

 

I expect they'll drop massively over the week but the #5 First Look position makes complete sense to me.

doesn't make sense to me even if adding the Instrumental, which accounted for very little

and the YT views were not huge either

can't see remaining top 10 unless the Army buys from their website or something

You said it was #3 on YouTube, it's probably #2 on downloads this week, and there's only 1 day of streaming to drag it down a bit so #5 makes sense to me. It won't stay anywhere near that high but on a small amount of data, it's not too shocking.

I really wish Olivia’s label bothered to avoid her hitting acr, we’ve had no remixes of any single promoted etc

I don't think it matters to her label at all - the song doesn't stop selling because it's on ACR and it's not like it can hit a new peak now (nor is it likely to return to #1), so what does it actually gain them? They've probably decided it's just not worth the effort!

Especially when it opens the floor for another album track charting when G4U’s streams drop enough. The album has done very well and as more of the general public hear different tracks it only keeps it afloat longer :D

I guess Three Lions wont be heading for No. 1 this week then.
I wonder how far all the football songs will fall after England's defeat. Would be nice for Atomic Kitten to have done enough over the weekend to still be top forty on Friday but we'll see.

Didn't realise S Club 7 were releasing a new greatest hits! I had their original 2003 one on CD when I was a kid! :lol:

It's a random cheap cash-in release (only £5.99 too)! The artwork... :lol:

It's got a load of songs on it though, some of which are b-sides and therefore haven't been on streaming!

Hard to tell if a 7k lead will be enough for Inhaler - Queen were only 4.4k ahead on Monday last week and barely lost it in the end, but I assume Inhaler will be more frontloaded (although can't rule out it having another sales dump later in the week).
Team Inhaler are going for it this week - £5.99 downloads, £6 personalised albums via Banquet Records, new signed bundles etc., so I think they will keep the top spot

Inhaler are currently out in front in the race for No.1 with their debut album, It Won’t Always Be Like This (Polydor), based on the Midweek sales flash.

 

The Irish band’s album has so far moved 12,345 copies (including 11,667 physical units) in its first week, according to the Official Charts Company.

 

Last week’s No.1, Sour (Geffen/Polydor), by Olivia Rodrigo is currently in second place with 5,133 sales (4,649 from streams).

 

Muse’s 20th anniversary edition of Origin Of Symmetry (East West/Taste) is currently at No.3 (4,297 sales), ahead of Tom Odell’s Monsters (Columbia) on 3,867 sales.

 

After narrowly missing out on No.1 last week, Queen’s Greatest Hits (EMI) is down to No.5 (2,629), ahead of Doja Cat’s Planet Her (Ministry Of Sound) at No.6 (1,608) and Dua Lipa’s Future Nostalgia (Warner Records) at No.7 (1,568).

 

Another 20th anniversary edition, Turin Brakes’ The Optimist (Two-Piers), is chasing a Top 10 finish (No.9, 1,461).

 

In the singles chart, Ed Sheeran’s Bad Habits is still on top so far this week (38,336 sales). Three Lions by Baddiel, Skinner and The Lightning Seeds has surged 4-2 (24,400), though the sales only go up to midnight on Sunday so England’s Euros 2020 defeat will not be reflected in that result.

 

The highest new entry in the Midweek sales flash is Clash by Dave feat. Stormzy (Dave Neighbourhood) at No.4 (17,803). Stay by Kid Laroi & Justin Bieber (Columbia) is new at No.6 (13,534), while BTS are pushing for the Top 10 with new single Permission To Dance (Bighit) on 11,787.

Looking at some of the numbers:

 

Three Lions is on 24,400, which would've been enough for #11 last week.

 

Atomic Kitten are between the 13,534 of Laroi/Bieber and 11,787 of BTS. The first figure would've been enough for #25 last week, the latter figure enough for #31.

 

Sunday streaming won't have been accounted for either and both songs, as we know, have done very well on all platforms for Sunday, so we're looking at some respectable positions come Friday (and would be even if they sold 0 from their current totals!!)

 

In the album chart, Tom Odell's 3,867 figure would've got him to #8 last week so I hope he's on track for a respectable finish this week. I'm scared after Laura Mvula ended up at #21 :cry:
